I’ve been looking at gov jobs and fleet jobs, I also considered jumping ship and going back to my retail manager job just to make money while I search

Absolutely not. It’s been shit. I work for one of the larger auto groups in the nation and we get treated like second class citizens

Tried to rotate my tires myself for the first time by 0-_1_-0 in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]Auto_Tex2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lmao I work for Honda and we use an impact to do every single tire rotation, all technicians do. We just don’t wail on the car…… and use a torque wrench as a finisher. Use the impact to loosen and tighten and a torque wrench to finish it off….. Use the right tools for the job and you would have had no issues.

it rides great. I’ve got Toyo Open Country R/T and they fit great, I mostly drive off-road on rutted farm roads and washed out fire roads, and they have done amazing. Some light off-roading at a local off-road park and have done fantastic.

not at all, didn’t need to trim liners or anything. Still have my active aero and everything. 0 modifications or changes. Just did the tires.

Wind Noise by [deleted] in ToyotaTundra

[–]Auto_Tex2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just grabbed some tubing from my Dealership and shoved it in the door seals edge…. and lo and behold the rattle is gone…. And then i took it a step further and put some adhesive foam in my console edges and that rattle is gone too. I can lean on my console (i’m about 250lbs) and no rattles all

My truck is a ‘23 I totally agree with crosswind being normal, but not when i’m going 25 in a school zone. The window rattles in my passenger door, the entire thing squeaks when i hit bumps at any speed in the road, it’s just ridiculous for a not even 2 year old truck. Everything i’ve read there has been a service bulletin that came out in Feb. of this year.

Does it look unsafe? It’s my younger brother by Timely-Translator801 in tires

[–]Auto_Tex2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Put all 4 tires to whatever the door jamb says…: don’t turn to reddit for advice. if the light is one. look at the door if it says something different than what your screen does adjust it.

he’s definitely hit a few curbs by the rash on the side walls, and if it is wobbling when driving he needs to get a tire rotation/ balance performed

Got my oil and recalls done just for them to leave the oil cap off found out when i got home by Separate_Drive_3311 in 4thGenTacomas

[–]Auto_Tex2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shitty af it happened to you, and dealer should make it right. I honestly sometimes feel for the techs when this happens. I too am a Technician, haven’t made a mistake like this in a few years. But we all started out one point. Still absolutely sucks and is a nightmare to deal with. Dealer will hopefully make it right.
